About

WHERE WE CAME FROM
We didn’t start out to reinvent the recruitment industry but rather refine it and add value by taking a consultative approach to executive search. We started with the aim of focusing entirely on the customer, steering away from cold recruitment strategies so we could concentrate on our passion – connecting real people.
Situated in a rural setting surrounded by beautiful countryside, we wanted to define a strong team culture by providing the best possible working environment for our employees. Despite the close-knit team we’ve created here, our business spans far and wide, both nationally and internationally.
WHO WE ARE
Our people have always been an integral part of the ever-growing Collingwood family and we surround ourselves with experienced, dynamic professionals. Our ethos is present in everything we do, from finding you the perfect candidate to investing in our own staff. We don’t just sell our values, we practice what we preach - putting all who work here at the heart of everything we do.

Much focus has been put on East/West connectivity across the Northern Powerhouse with the proposed Trans Pennie road improvements and the potential HS3 rail development seen as a much needed solution for the regions economic development.

Highways England has said there is a ‘strong strategic case’ for a TransPennine Tunnel between Sheffield and Manchester - but that it could take up to 25 years to build Alan Shepherd, Highways England North-west regional director, told Construction News that he hoped the chancellor would give the green light to the project in the Autumn Statement (23 November).
Speaking at the CN Summit 2016, he said that the project could be the world’s longest tunnel and Europe’s largest civil engineering project in the past 30 years.
Five routes were shortlisted for the proposed £6billion tunnel, which will link Manchester to Sheffield, in August this year.
Asked whether the UK had the correct skillset to deliver a major tunnelling project of this scale, Shepherd said HS2’s bidders and procurement were ’a good analogy’ for how the process would work.
